I have seen Dr. Minh for 2 years for both ADHD and scoliosis chiropractic work. He knows so much about so many things and is always eager to share his knowledge with you…bring your “This weird thing keeps happening” questions and he’ll probably have some insight into why it is happening and if not, he’ll do research and let you know. I am constantly learning more about how my body and brain work from him. He spends as long as it takes to ensure you leave feeling better. He is truly the best doctor in terms of care and knowledge that I have experienced.

It is commonly first diagnosed in early childhood and has the possibility of lasting up to adulthood. About 6.4 million children in America between the ages of 5-16 have been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder.

Children with ADHD often display significant trouble when it comes to paying attention, holding back impulsive behaviors, and/or may be overly active. Children normally show some trouble focusing and behaving at one time or another, however when it comes to children with ADHD, they do not grow out of these behaviors.

The symptoms continue, can get worse and can cause the child to experience difficulty at school, with friends, or with family. They can also lead to the person developing low levels of self-esteem, low academic performances, poor social skills, antisocial like behavior, and substance abuse.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”100px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row presentation=”0″ px_parallax=”0″ px_gradient=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1625845343403{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}” el_class=”hidden-ipad-portrait”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”60px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row presentation=”0″ px_parallax=”0″ px_gradient=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1627576633226{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md”][vc_single_image image=”1983″ img_size=”full”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row_content_no_spaces” content_placement=”bottom” presentation=”0″ px_parallax=”0″ px_gradient=”0″ css=”.vc_custom_1626627423408{margin-right: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;background-image: url(http://norcalbrain.com/staging/7764/newstaging/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/ADHD-2.jpg?id=1640) !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}” el_id=”types” el_class=”custom-bg-pos”][vc_column width=”2/3″ el_class=”padding-box” css=”.vc_custom_1621094773785{margin-top: 100px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”][vc_custom_heading text=”A CHILD WITH ADHD MAY SHOW THE FOLLOWING

ADHD

Equipment and Technology for Evaluation & Diagnosis

• QEEG brain map testing: By taking a look brain waves, we can get a picture of how the entire brain is performing, whether some areas are overactive or underactive
• Neurocognitive tests: Consisting of several traditional neuropsychological tests, we can measure the child’s memory, executive function, critical thinking and more.
• Videonystagmography eye recording testing: Most children with ADHD have problems with visual tracking and other eye movements. We can measure and specifically see if these deficits are contributing to their symptoms.
• Computerized dynamic posturography (balance testing): Balance is an important sensory skill. Individuals with sensory processing issues can tend to have balance problems
• Competent neurological and physical examination: We want to measure and assess the overall functional state of the brain.
• Comprehensive lab testing: Individuals with ADHD often have food sensitivities, nutrient deficiencies, and gastrointestinal issues that are contributing to their symptoms.

By putting all of these tests together, our doctors are able to pin point any functional deficiencies that may be at the root of the ADHD symptoms.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1621130709949{margin-bottom: 0px !important;background-color: #ececec !important;}”][vc_column_text]

ADHD

Treatment

Here at NorCal Brain Center we offer a drug-free approach through neurorehabilitation therapy which targets and can directly improve focus, concentration, social skills, memory retainment, and/or behavioral problems.
Research has shown that connections in the brain are weaker in those who have ADHD, which in turn can lead to the signs and symptoms of ADHD. Each of our ADHD treatments are tailored to each individual patient. Our goal is to increase the strength and efficiency of these connections in the brain that are not working to their potential. This specific plan of action is how our doctors at Norcal Brain Center achieve remarkable results with our patients.

Treatment of ADHD can differ from person to person, depending on the cause of the problem. Some treatments we provide include Neurofeedback, visual rehabilitation, vestibular rehabilitation, sensory training, balance training, and more.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row presentation=”0″ px_parallax=”0″ px_gradient=”0″ el_id=”neurodevelopmental-disorders”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”100px” el_class=”hidden-ipad”][vc_custom_heading text=”NEURODEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS RELATED SYMPTOMS” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:center” use_theme_fonts=”yes” el_class=”font-light clear-spacing”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1625845365028{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]
